Can't find lens profiles on lightroom anymore...

So the other day I went to go set lens corrections on a picture in lightroom 3 (windows 7 64 bit version) and all the lens profiles were gone, except one for the apple iphone, which is no help to me. I don't know what happened. please help?
Also, I've been having issues importing photos, I keep ending up with 3 copies of each picture.
Not to mention LR keeps freezing up...

Do you mean you can only see Apple in the Make box after you enable Camera Profiles, or are other camera/lens manufacturers also listed and Apple is just the first one, with 3 iPhone model options?
If Apple is your only Make choice, then you can check to see if the profile folders and files still exist on Windows 7, since it's possible all the Adobe ones are gone or inaccessible due to some security issue, and only a custom-downloaded one is shown.
The Adobe-installed profiles are in two places:
C:\ProgramData\Adobe\CameraRaw
C:\Users\All Users\Adobe\CameraRaw
And any user-installed profiles go under:
C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw
The AppData and ProgramData folders in the above paths are hidden or system so they won't necessarily show up in Explorer clicking down from the root of the C: drive, unless you have changed your folder options to show hidden and system files, but you can type in the path in the address bar of Explorer and get to the folders even if they are hidden.
Selecting Auto will try to find the right camera profile based on the EXIF information in the photo, but you should be able to choose Custom and select any manufacturer. The profiles are specific for either RAW or JPG files, though.

Where can I find lens profile libraries?

I have a Olympus E-450 with a Olympus Zuiko 14-42 mm lens and there is a lot of spheric aberration in low focal length. I am looking an Adobe Ligthroom lens profile to correct it.

There is no internal or external lens profile built into Adobe products for your lens, and no external Olympus lenses supplied by Adobe:
There is a profile contributed by a user that is available via the lens profile downloader that is apparently for your lens on an E-510. It's rating is only 3 out of 5 so it may not be that good, but perhaps better than nothing:
Here is a Before/After correction comparison:

Hello, Can you tell me where I can found the lens profil for the Canon 500MM F4 Mark II

Can some one tell me where I could find this lens profile for Lightroom 5.4.
thanks

Given the 600mm F4 IS II (February 2011) lens profile hasn't been created yet it may be a while (if ever). I wouldn't worry about it since the lens profile only corrects distortion and vignetting. There is virtually no distortion with either of these lenses and vignetting is within 0.2EV using the 600mm profile, which you can set as the "default" profile. Personally I think people put too much emphasis on the need for "automatic" lens profile correction. All my lens profile defaults are set to Distortion = 0 and Vignetting = 50. I change the setting only when an image appears to need more correction. WHY?
REASON
Distortion correction crops part of the image and increases "edge" stretching with wide angle lenses–It's a trade-off for straight lines in the image. IMHO-If it's not visible in the image you don't need it. 100% Vignetting correction setting can look un-natural and amplifies lens aberrations and softness in the corners, which is where vignetting correction is applied the most.
My 2 cents worth.

Import lens profile into Lightroom 4.3

Hi,
As my camera is fairly "old", lightroom does not have a lens correction profile for it. I have created a lens correction profile with Adobe Lens Profile Creator. Now how can I import this profile in Lightroom?
Thanks

Are you are on a Mac? I am on Windows and the locations for the profiles given above are for Windows, not a Mac.
With LR 4.3, you cannot put the user profiles into the folder with the Adobe profiles. I can't tell you how things work on a Mac nor exactly where they should go without Googling where user profiles go on a Mac.
I can say that I put the profile you supplied into this exact folder on my Windows 7 computer and it worked right off, as soon as I enabled lens profile corrections for the JPG:
C:\Users\Steve\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw\LensProfiles\1.0\Downloaded
as evidenced by the righthand panel in this screenshot:
However, as you can see with the before and after portion of the screenshot, there appears to be something wrong with at least the vignetting correction, because the corners are over-lightened, and almost the entire image is much brighter with the lens profile applied. I've never created a lens profile to know if what I'm seeing is due to a common mistake when creating profiles such as uneven lighting, or if perhaps the profile doesn't have enough different focal-length combinations so it is applying a correction for a completely different position of the lens and overlightening. Or perhaps the vignetting has already been corrected in the JPG that was supplied so now it is being double-corrected by applying the profile, again.

I am unable to start Firefox. Getting message that it's already running. Can't find my profile using "%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles|". What do I need to do

I am unable to start Firefox. Getting message that it's already running. Can't find my profile using "%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles|". Rebooting my computer didn't help. Since I experienced that problem I also noticed that all my bookmarks which I had copied into the Windows Internet Explorer have also disappeared. I am using Firefox as my primary search engine and usually don't use Internet Explorer. I am running Windows 7 on my machine.

Where can download the lens profile for Sigma 14mm 2.8 (nikon D700)

where can download the lens profile for Sigma 14mm 2.8 (nikon D700)

There currently isn't a profile available for download via the Adobe Lens Profile Downloader. You can create your own profile by downloading the Adobe Lens Profile Create from Adobe Labs.

I use a Canon MPE-65 almost exclusively and can't find a profile for this lens in the LR 5 lens correction panel.

Is Adobe planning to add this lens profile? Or is there a workaround?

I don’t think Adobe can make lens profiles for this specialized macro lens.
Lens profiles correct for geometric distortions and vignetting, and both of these change based on subject distance, aperture, focal length and for this lens, the 1x-5x zoom setting.
Lens profile files consist of a series of corrections for various combination of the above.
For a lens profile to be created the lens has to communicate the subject distance, focal-length, aperture and zoom level to the camera and the camera has to record these in the EXIF data so that Adobe products can read it these parameters and look up the matching correction.
I don’t have this lens, but I am reading that it is a manual lens which can mean that there is no communication of lens settings back to the camera. Is this true, at least for some of the settings? If so, then Adobe cannot match a lens profile with the lens settings and a lens profile would be useless.
If you always shoot your macros with a few combinations of your settings there’s a possibility you could make your own lens profiles and match them up, yourself, based on notes you take at each session.
The Adobe Lens Profile Creator, that is available as a download from Adobe, uses checkerboard patterns. It would be necessary to create very small ones for this lens, if 5x really makes a grain of rice full-frame.

Where can I find lens correction profiles for EF 17-35 f/2.8L lens using ACR 6.2?

Using Photoshop CS5 Extended on iMac 10.6.4.
I'm working with wedding photos shot by a friend but I cannot find lens correction profiles for Canon EOS 20D or the EF 17-35 f/2.8L lens. When I search online it simply says "No online profiles found". Is there a download for older lens profiles? I checked & I'm using ACR 6.2. I don't have the camera so there's no way to take test photos to create my own profile. But, shouldn't there be a profile available; the camera isn't that old?

Go to DXO Pro and download the 30 day trial. It works very well for lens/body correction, and unlike Adobe, DXO maintains data on the older cameras and lenses. Updates will always have those available. Adobe is a latecomer to this part of the correction process, so as Ian said, no call, no supplier? Out of luck.
http://www.dxo.com/intl/photo
It's fair to note that DXO does not necessarily have a complete line of everything, like my Tamron 28 to 75 isn't available as a module. They do pay attention to demands, or lack therof, that are not mainstream as well. But their offerings are excellent, and the tests, professional.

Lens Profiles in Lightroom 3

I've created a lens profile for the Olympus E-P2 M.9-18mm F4.0-5.6 lens using the Adobe Lens Profile Creator. I used RAW files converted to DNG. However, I cannot figure out where to put the profile so that Lightroom recognizes it. Initially, I saved the profile to the default location chosen by the Profile Creator, but this didn't work, though Photoshop finds it with no difficulty. Can anyone help?

I'm using Windows 7 64x so I can't comment on a Mac but suspect the same applies. Two downloaded profiles were stored in a default user location - the same place that Lens Profile Creator would file it but the default location for Lightroom profiles was the shared profiles location. I simply copied the only two profiles across from user location to the shared location After a relaunch Lightroom placed them at the bottom of my list.
See http://www.computer-darkroom.com/blog/lens-correction-profiles/

Removing Photoshop Elements 9 caused missing lens profiles in Lightroom 3.3

After my trial on Photoshop Elements 9 expired I removed it from my Windows Vista system. The next time I started Lightroom 3.3 I tried to apply a Canon lens profile to some new images and the profile was missing, not only was it not on the list, none of the 862 images taken with this lens had the profile applyed to them anymore. I tried to repair the installation and it failed saying I was missing components. I then tried to upgrade to RC 3.4 & it failed with the same message. I finally thought it might have been caused by the removal of Photoshop Elements so I went to the restore point that it did prior to removal. Now I have the lens profile back that was missing the Canon EF28-135mm profile as well as to the other 862 images. My question is should there be anything else I should look for to see if it is missing or damaged? Thanks - Larry

Larry,
The common part between LR and PSE is the Camera Raw part (ACR). It's settings are contained in 2 different locations:
1) General ACR configuration files:
C:\ProgramData\Adobe\CameraRaw
This directory contains lens and camera profiles installed with LR
2) User related configuration files:
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CameraRaw
This directory usually contains:
Downloaded/created lens profiles
ACR defaults (like ACR cache size, any defaults set in LR)
Downloaded/created camera profiles
You might want to check the content of those 2 locations. One other alternative would be to uninstall and re-install LR, which should take care of the factory supplied profiles.

How to use lens profile from Lightroom 5 in Lightroom 4

I'm using Lightroom 4.4 on a five-year-old iMac. I haven't been able to upgrade to LR 5 because it requires an operating system upgrade, but the technicians at the Apple Store say my machine is too old for the upgrade. I just bought a new Sony 18-105 lens which requires siginificant software lens correction. It has been included in the latest ACR in LR 5, but not LR 4. Is there any way I can locate and load the lens profile for just this one lens in my LR4? I've looked and there is no profile in the Adobe Porfile Downloader I can use.

Zenfolio purposely disables saving of images from the gallery, so requires some deviousness to get to a smallish version of the underlying JPG image, here:
http://fiegenschuhphotography.zenfolio.com/cdn/pub/uf9epzjb9ekl/0/null/mk/2ho0rvxl_mbq61ne tqcu/s2/v61/p207717972-3.jpg
Figgie123, can you provide an original-sized raw file to test with? Upload it to somewhere like www.dropbox.com then post the public download link, here. The file on Zenfolio is small, difficult to even download, and isn't what you're working with when the lens profiles are not working for you. The idea is to repeat what you're doing to see if we have the same issues.
Here is what applying a Sony E PZ 18-105 F4 G OSS profile looks like in Photoshop Lens Corrections and I don't really see any change compared with the Zenfolio image:
